240v charging available, L6-20 outlets

LG now offers 240v charging for customers and for EV meetings. We are also signed up on PlugShare for public use (though the app only registers 120v and J1772 plugs).

There are 4 outlets available, L6-20 twist lock style. They are located at each lift for easy access during service and to best accommodate cars during meetings. They are optimized for use by the EVSE that comes with each Nissan Leaf and can be modified to run on 240v. Email for more information on this modification.

We will have J1772 charging ability in the future, but I am still deciding on the best manufacturer and specifications for our needs. I am actively pursuing a Nissan EVSE for the shop, but they are currently on backorder.

Thanks to our electrician Kevin Main of KLM Utilities for the installation. To get your own plug, visit KLMUtilities.com
